    Round 2: My 2015 Galaxy Blue Journal

    Front end noise is something relating to the suspension, but I cannot figure out what it is. I am thinking strut at this point. Gravel bike meaning the frame fits much wider tires (these are 43s vs my road bike that had 25s) the geometry is a little more "relaxed" (you sit more upright vs. a...

    New - Zinc coated slotted rear rotors for 05-07 sti

    Hey guys I wanted to pass along a deal to you if anyone can use a set of rear rotors for their 05-07 STi. Through a mix up from the company I ordered my rotors from, I ended up with an extra set of rear rotors for an 05-07 STi that I was told to just sell. They are worth about $150, I?m going...

    Round 2: My 2015 Galaxy Blue Journal

    Responded to this in the above post, but on a different note...I give you all that info and pictures and you only ask about the stem length on the bike :unsure: Haha j/k. Just thought it was funny.

    Moved this from review section to engine section. Would love to see you make a thread to review what you bought though!

    Round 2: My 2015 Galaxy Blue Journal

    I think that it is a 90mm (stock), same as what I had on my Argon. I had a 110mm on the Argon at one point, that was a bit too stretched out. I have long arms relative to my body so it works well for me. O and I have black bar tape coming. I'm all for color coordination, but it is a bit over...

    New exhaust!

    I may be getting new exhaust at the end of this year so I'm interested to hear yours. I've listened to a ton of different systems lately but everyone seems to have a few things different making them sound slightly different. And they are all shot using different phones and cameras so it's hard...

    Round 2: My 2015 Galaxy Blue Journal

    No need for an oil temp gauge, built in to the 15s. I will get some pictures and specs up on the Escape along with a review, thanks for asking. Yes, I have a signal wire running from a sandwich adapter at the oil filter up through the fender liner (line wasn't long enough to run it from the...

    Round 2: My 2015 Galaxy Blue Journal

    A few quick notes: Pictures to come because...well everyone will want to see my stupidity and possibly the other stuff as well. 1. I had a new HVAC system installed at the house. When removing the old equipment, some was put in the driveway. Yes, I somehow managed to scratch my rear...

    Clifford alarm system

    Sorry I am not real helpful on this one. I've never had an alarm system or the need for one. When it comes to electrical stuff I am just happy to wire up gauges I buy within 6 months haha.

    Silver Bullet 2004 WRX STI

    That sounds like it should work. It won?t be anything catastrophic if there are some pulsing issues. They will show up in dyno tuning, so it can be addressed at that point if needed. Keep us posted. When do you think this will be together?

    Silver Bullet 2004 WRX STI

    Agreed. The design of the rails can help as well. I?ve read that some companies transition from round to an ellipse to help smooth out the pulses. As I said in my last reply, I don?t see this being an issue unless you are making really big power. Even then it may depend on the specs of the...

    The Golf Shop

    I took into account turf interaction with a sloping design, tried to keep the MOI high with more weight at the heel and toe, and modeled it with influence from the stealth bomber design. I learned a lot through the process and would defintly do some things differently the next time. I am...

    Silver Bullet 2004 WRX STI

    From what I understand, the fuel damper is to reduce fuel pressure surges at high rpm and boost (when injectors are changing flow the most). An aftermarket FPR will handle this better than stock but not eliminate it. How much power are you putting down? I doubt this will be an issue unless...

    The Golf Shop

    Haha yeah, it is more about convenience and saving time than anything. I can play a round of sim golf in an hour in the basement vs. 3-4 hrs depending on how busy a course is. And I save drive time. I designed a putter a few years back and sent in 2 copies to the USGA for approval. They...

    The joy of bicycling (from the perspective of a group of car enthusiasts)

    I sold off the dual power meter I had on it and bought a cheaper crankset. Pocketed $400 which is going straight into fixing my wife's suv (brake caliper locked up). Yay. I was going to part the rest of it but haven't gotten any good bites on it yet.

    The Golf Shop

    Yeah I find it hard to find good golfing buddies. Either they are messing with the carts or drinking too much. I mainly go with the ?old guys? because they take it more serious yet still have fun. my setup was roughly $2500 for launch monitor, sim software, and net. I already had the mat and...

    The joy of bicycling (from the perspective of a group of car enthusiasts)

    Update on my cycling life. I have really dropped off since other things have taken priority. So much so that I sold off some parts and am replacing them with cheaper alternatives (makes no difference in performance since I really only ride inside these days). Crazy how something you pour so...

    The Golf Shop

    I fully understand this thread may be limited to me as many people find golf to be pointless, boring, etc. With that out of the way, I wanted to create a thread for anyone else that is interested in talking about golf. I got into about 10 years ago and wish I had started earlier. I love most...

    Round 2: My 2015 Galaxy Blue Journal

    Haha, I wish. If that were the case I would have heard an exhaust rattle or motor noise requiring many new parts :D. Sadly this will do little for performance, just my sanity.

    Round 2: My 2015 Galaxy Blue Journal

    Basically it was a guess to be honest. After installing new springs on my Mini Cooper S a few years ago I had a weird bumping/thunk noise on the ride home and realized I did not have the endlinks tightened properly. After making them tight the problem was solved. I pulled over the other day...
